  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations, which apply to Scotland only, make provision for the enforcement of Article 1 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No. 1860/88 on the establishment of special marketing standards for olive oil (OJ No. L166, 1.7.88, p.16). Article 1 of the Commission Regulation provides that olive oils and olive-pomace oils with a tetrachloroethylene content of more than 0.1 milligram per kilogram may not be offered for retail sale.\nThe Regulations also prescribe the method of analysis to be used in determining the tetrachloroethylene content as that set out in Commission Regulation (EEC) No. 1058/77 (OJ No. L128, 24.5.77, p.6) on the characteristics of olive oil, as amended by Commission Regulation (EEC) No. 1858/88 (OJ No. L166, 1.7.88, p.10). However, until 31st October 1989 other methods giving results compatible with that method may be used where those methods, before being used, have been communicated to the Commission by the Member States concerned.",
